    Can also just unplug the connector for the seatbelt buckle switch under the drives seat. The passenger side is the opposite type of switch (I have no F*ing idea why), but you would have to use a tiny piece of wire to short that one out to make it think its closed all the time

    To be clear these are the center caps for the wheel. Not actually the hubs. My bad.

    I’m interested in what you have installed in the other drop down compartment there. Looks like it may be compass/external temp display. If so I’d really love some details

    Finally ordered some ditch light brackets from Rago to go along with the el cheapo ditch light pods Ive had sitting on the shelf for almost a year now :bananadead:

    Got everything installed after work this week. Just need to wire them up. Found adding a washer under each of the bolts was a good idea as the slots in the bracket are a bit over machined and the stock bolt head didnt quite have a ton of bite. Also added a nice big nylon washer between the LED and the bracket to hopefully minimize the rust transfer when the cheapo LED bracket inevitably starts the rust

    I like the placement of your light bar on the bumper.

    Seems like that would get you pulled over for obstructing your view. Hopefully you never run that on the highway.

    Mine made a world of difference. I'm only 5' 8 but I can see a bit better over the hood and my back no longer hurts while driving
